A lot of my heartbreak songs are inspired by things my sisters are going through, or friends.
Songwriting is my way of channeling my feelings and my thoughts. Not just mine, but the things I see, the people I care about. My head would explode if I didn't get some of that stuff out.
People say I look so happy - and I say, 'That's the Botox.'
When you're 40, you can't ride the fence anymore. You gotta make definite decisions about your life.
I'm working on my life story. I'm not decided if it's going to be a musical or a movie with music in it.
If you like good ol' fashion Southern soul food then, yes, I am a good cook! My specialty is chicken dumplings and poke salad.
I say, 'Yeah, Taylor Swift.' I think she is a smart, beautiful girl. I think she's making all the right moves. She's got a good head on her shoulders. She's surrounded with wonderful people. Her songs are great. She keeps herself anchored. She knows who she is, and she's living and standing by that.

A gypsy told me I was going to do great things. I was going to make all kinds of money.

You don't see too many atheists on the deathbed. They all start cramming then.
A lot of dreams can turn to nightmares... if you don't really work them.
I wake up with new dreams every day...more I can do to channel that into things that I love to create is healthier for me and probably for everybody around me.
I'll be wearing my high heels, even if I'm up to my knees in mud
